Last week, our Recipe of the Week was a super healthy Acorn Squash Hummus. The colors and freshness of that recipe are so fantastic and mouth-watering and it is definitely worth a try. Every once in a while, though, we feel it's necessary to be a little naughty and this Gooey Baked Mac n Cheese is an excellent way to indulge.

This recipe is cheesy, a little creamy, and definitely gooey as promised. The black garlic cloves add that perfect hint of unique flavor that really puts this recipe over the top. Indulge your family this week with this incredible, once-in-a-blue-moon dish. YUM!

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish. In a large pot of salted water, lightly boil the macaroni for about 5 minutes until half-cooked. Whisk the egg and half and half together in a large cup. Add butter and cheese to the egg and half and half and toss in black garlic. Stir well.

Place the lightly cooked macaroni in the prepared baking dish. Pour the egg and cheese liquid over the macaroni, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and stir well. Press the mixture evenly around the baking dish. Bake uncovered, for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the top is brown.
